Asus VivoBook S does cheap right

The brushed silver budget laptop from Asus will start at $499 (roughly converting to AU$670 or £390).

For that money, you get something that looks remarkably MacBookish -- down to the brushed metal chassis.

There's a 7.8mm (0.3 inches) bezel surrounding a 15.6-inch screen.

Like the rest of the Asus range unveiled at Computex, it'll also hit 60 percent charge after just 49 minutes.

It's also pack an Intel i7 core, an Nvidia GeForece 940 MX discrete graphics card, 2TB HD and 512 SSD storage and 16GB of memory.
